1978 F350 cummins swap


I'm looking for anyone that has information on doing a 12 valve cummins swap on a 1978 Ford F-350 2wd. It is single wheel based and currently has a 460 in it. I just wanna know of any tips or information that's out there

There are a couple of 2wd swaps on here. Sorry I don't have the links.

Most of these swaps are 4wd but it will show you the amount of work required to get the job done.
